Well done lads (again)

Match report from the moaning reporter who wasn’t there.

Well done lads – my a*rse!

The first half was a bore; it was cold; Wimbledon don’t play in Wimbledon; I didn’t go and should have done; eventually Jacobs scored a scrappy goal; the fella in front of me was too big so I couldn’t see; Powell managed a full game without being injured or getting tired; Grigg didn’t score; Perkins wasn’t there; it didn’t rain; the ref nearly scored for them – see the evidence is there that they all hate us.

See – there is plenty to moan about – FFS Cookie – get it sorted.

I suppose, I’ll concede – we did win, only by 4 goals but we should reluctantly admit that Powell’s and Power’s goals were both a total fluke. Even more reluctantly we’ll admit they were bloody good. Do it again next week and I’ll begin to have some belief. NOT ‘faith’ because the definition of faith is ‘belief without evidence’ and I need the evidence, hopefully I’ll get that on 7 May, but I wont hold my breath.

1 positive is that at last 1 of strikers scored, albeit in the 94th minute and not as usual where it is either the defenders and midfielders.

Well done guys – good result, brilliant goals.

Perversely it is incredibly much harder to score against 10 men rather than 11, so for us to score a few is a reallypositive sign.
Going down to 10 means the team sacrifice any attacking ideas and concentrate on defensive work. Very hard to break down so we did extremely well.

Good Link. However, it doesn’t exactly address GL’s point that it is “harder to score”. The article measures “harder to play against” and measures by the team result/points gained. I’d be very interested to take the result out, and see if it’s really harder or easier to score against – regardless of if you are scored on (or what the score was before the red card).
